Electrical devices used in the clinical setting can induce artifacts by various different mechanisms. We aimed to present an example of serious artifact happened during induction of general anesthesia in a child. With the advent of newer surgical technologies and more advanced anesthesia and surgical equipment in the operating room, we are expecting the interference could be an issue, if it is not taken into considerations in advance. Healthcare provider should be aware about this incident and its management.
